so... i'm starting a USB for the arcade, and i was wondering if you can still use USB drives with a FAT format. Does it have to be the FAT32, or can i still use my FAT drive? | |

I think they are the same thing. Mine is FAT, and it works fine. It should be okay.

As long as it isn't NTFS for some reason, I think it you wouldn't have a problem.

ok so i tried to use it and the machine said something like "High-Power Drive not supported" or something along those lines. Could there be something wrong with the drive itself, or because i have other files for like school? (i also think it might be the U3 installment, but i'm not really clear on it)
here's a pic (i know it works cause i saw someone with the same one) http://img.bondfaro.com/prodimgs/lar...a0/27661_1.jpg
its like 123 MB, so i guess size doesn't matter | |

Just based on the error, it sounds like the drive is drawing more power than the machine's USB ports are ready to put out. I have no idea why this might be the case, though. | |

It has to be the stick type of USB drive right? Because my hard drive that has an AC cord won't work. Is that a "high Power drive?" | |

ok... like 2 mondays ago I went to t=Target, and I got a Lexar JumpDrive FireFly w/ 128MB for like 13.99 (a good deal compared to the others). I had other drives to choose from, but most of them were "USB 2.0" I wondered if ITG used USB 1.0, and took that into consideration. The FireFly said nothing about USB 2.0, except that it can be used with a USB 2.0 port. So I bought the Lexar, got my custom songs on it, and tested it. Guess what? IT WORKED!!! So for anyone wondering about a USB drive to use, get the one I have. (It's pretty small, too, so keep it on a string or something)

mine's the orange one 
but it's 128 MB
so, in short, don't get a USB 2.0, as it's a "High-Power Drive" and will not be supported. USB 2.0s are high-speed drives, so that's probably why.

Mine is a USB 2.0 drive by Lexar, and it works no problem on all ITG machines I've ever played on. | |

2) don't have to set your mods every time
3) keep combo between games
4) bring custom songs & steps to the arcade with you (on r21 machines with this option enabled)
What's the point of playing ITG2 WITHOUT it? I'm 75% serious. | |
